STUDY IN FRENCH UNIVERSITY

Study abroad in France

Universities around the world are offering more and more study abroad programs as they seek to differentiate their offerings and lure prospective students. These programs continue to have a very strong appeal, as young people realize that going to even a local school can enable them to see the world, at least for one semester.

One of the most popular places for students to study abroad is France, for obvious reasons. The country is amazingly beautiful, the French university system is rigorous and intellectually stimulating. Furthermore the language is probably the most beautiful spoken tongue in the world. The chance to study in a French university is a huge drawing card for many students. Especially for those who participate in a study abroad program or even want to take a chance at enrolling in a French university on their own.

However, you should consider that the French university system varies widely in campus beauty and host city hospitality. Indeeed there are urban campuses that lack the charm that one might expect in France. But there are others where you will want to stay in the city for years to come.

To study in a French university, consider these preparation points:

Ensure that your university has a study abroad program that offers an option in France

Apply yourself to a French university; some have programs for students who are not fluent yet in French

Combine study in a French university with language learning on site
